Korey Schroeder on Fresno State, OSU, and the Cougs' Next Step
Korey Schroeder walked into the postgame presser and did not sound like a man who just swept a conference opener. He sounded like a coach who knows the next two weeks define the season. Fresno State is done. The Cougs took care of business, and if you missed how they did it, go find the film room breakdown from the Duquesne game. It is worth your six seconds. That same attention to detail showed up against the Bulldogs. Clean. Decisive. No panic when the Bulldogs made a run. That is the standard now.
Next up is Oregon State. That trip is never easy. The Beavers will test everything the Cougs just proved to themselves. Schroeder knows it. The locker room knows it. The fans who packed Beasley know it. Arizona week already set the tone with Kirby Moore on the mic, no need to overthink it. The offense has answers. The defense has a backbone. Now they have to carry that load onto the road.
Nobody is handing out trophies for a clean sweep of Fresno State. But the Cougs started Pac-12 play the right way. Schroeder has this group believing. The next step is showing it can travel. Go Cougs.
